The staff was extremely friendly and the hotel was clean and centrally located, with a cute old elevator. They do need to repair the door handle for Room 61, though.

Nice cozy vintage looking room. Very helpful staff and location is excellent. If you are doing Hop on/off bus, their stop is less than 5 mins walk away. Only thing, since they kept the patio doors open - there were a lot of flies in the room but honestly, as day faded - so did they.

An historic older hotel, a block from the central plaza, and close to restaurants, shops, museums and tourist attractions. The building, in spite of its age, was very well maintained and super clean. Recommended without hesitation, and I would definitely stay at the Palacio Hotel again in future.

The hotel had character and was in a good location to see the city centre. The centre of Montevideo is a bit run down and lacking in sights compared to Colonia or other countries. If you go to Montevideo this hotel is cheap and makes a comfortable base to stay.

I love this very charming hotel located in the old city but close to downtown. I stay here every time I visit Montevideo if they have availability. The staff are wonderful and helpful, the rooms are nice and have the old world charm, the location is lovely, the coffee is excellent. It feels like home to me!

Great option for Montevideo centro and old town

Nice in the sense of faded grandeur and very well priced. Well placed but not actually in the old town which can be a bit risky at night. Staff were fantastic.
